At that time, Steve Burton was sitting in his seat, solving function problems, when suddenly a boy patted Howard Coleman, who was sleeping with his face down on the desk next to him.
Howard raised his head with a bad temper, but before he could speak, the boy said, “Howard, your little high school sister named Ruby Gregory, is surrounded by thugs outside the school.”
Just after the boy finished speaking, as he was about to watch the reaction of the “big brother” who always went to the freshman department to take care of Ruby, Steve Burton, who had been focused on his chemistry problems and oblivious to the world outside, suddenly threw his pen violently and jumped up. He leaped over Howard and ran towards the door at an extreme speed. As he approached the door, Steve Burton grabbed a broom along the way.
By this time, Howard was fully awake, and he followed Steve in a hurry. He even stuck his head into the classroom next door and called in Rusell Henris and Edward Woods.
When Steve Burton, Rusell Henris, Edward Woods, and Howard Coleman arrived at the school gate, Ruby Gregory was about to be dragged into a motorcycle.
The four young and impulsive teenagers rushed up without hesitation.
That day in Ciawell, it was summer with a blue sky, white clouds, and high temperature.
That day, four young men from noble backgrounds, who had received elegant educations, fought a mass brawl for a woman named Ruby Gregory.
In that brawl, Steve Burton, Rusell Henris, Howard Coleman, and Edward Woods defeated twenty people.
Although in the end, the four of them had torn clothes, scratched faces, and a miserable victory, they became a legendary story in the school.
That fight attracted the attention of the school security and nearby police and eventually alarmed the school leaders.
Usually, the school would protect its students in such cases, adding that the thugs were idle and had a criminal record in the police station. When the police heard that they had bullied a girl and that these gallant teenagers had come to help, they were deeply moved and took the thugs to the police station without hesitation.
At this time, Madeleine had hurried over upon hearing the news.
Steve Burton had always been well-liked by school leaders. He only said a few words, and the school leaders did not contact their parents. They all went to the hospital together.
When they came out of the hospital, it was already dusk.
After a fight and a hectic afternoon, they were all hungry, and the six of them went to have dinner together.
Perhaps it was the passionate event of that day that made them too excited. They drank some alcohol during dinner, and before they knew it, they had proposed that they all not return home for the night.
Rusell Henris called his home to say he was staying at Howard Coleman’s house, Howard said he was staying at Edward Woods’, Edward said he was staying at Steve Burton’s, Madeleine and Ruby had to say they were staying at each other’s houses, and only Steve Burton picked up the phone in the end and said, “I’m not coming home tonight.” Then he casually hung up the phone, under the stunned gaze of a group of people, receiving the admiration of Rusell Henris, Howard Coleman, and Edward Woods who also had to report their overnight stays.
